Pseudo Christo. He was well known for his eye catching, environmental, epic scaled artworks that often involved the wrapping of buildings, bridges, and islands in fabric. This fumigation tent was eye catching and functional as well. I guess Atwater Village has its share of termites.
Temples of Consumerism. A storefront in Tokyo that really made good use of the grid in its entry. Like a good façade, this one is as elegant as the items inside.
Mutant Combo Offspring or Drawn From the Old and New. This is an image embedded within an image. The similar characteristics in the shapes from the two drawings allowed the blending and a sort of subliminal message.
Where’s My Negative Space? Filling up the background and liking it.
Observation, X, and Cintiq. Okay, an observational Cintiq drawing of an album cover from my collection of albums. X was important to the LA punk music scene. They had an interesting audio and visual aesthetic. My old version of Photoshop and ancient MacBook worked well with the state of the art Cintiq so I’d have to say “Very nice!”
Patterns, Stripes, and Cintiq. I placed a yardstick on the screen to draw the lines. The lines have an irregular regularity to them. “Nice again.”
Patterns, Drips, and Cintiq. I got a chance to mess around with the Cintiq 2400 by Wacom. One weekend only, so I had to draw quickly and did three in a day. The advantage of this device is that you draw on and see everything on the Cintiq screen. This screen happened to be big, way big. “Nice.”
Sunset Blvd. Framing nothing. (Location: West Hollywood, CA).
On a Roll. Watching a show about design, I got a screenshot of one of Apple’s formidable assets. (Location: Altadena, CA).
Ambiguous Reality. Slightly irregular against a beautiful blue sky. (Location: Book Soup, Hollywood, CA).
